Indulgence
Indulgence
Indulgence is the full/partial reduction of spiritual punishment, caused by forgiveness of one's sins.
The Catholic church grants one Indulgence after the sinner confesses and receives Absolution.
After receiving Indulgence, the former sinner doesn't go to Hell.
Even before Indulgence, the church charged greatly for salvation, but more so for Indulgence.
However many people would dishonestly sell Indulgence to people- abiding the corruption of the church.
Indulgence was one of the qualities of the Catholic church that was being rebelled against during the Reformation- especially by the Lutherans.

the church was undermined with the publishing of the 95 these when many people supported Luther's ideas; his ideas spread rapidly and greatly challenged the higher levels of the church hierarchy; many of his supporter were form the middle of this hierarchy
some of his beliefs/ sayings weer
" by faith alone", "by Scriptures alone", " the priesthood of all believers"- these mean that the doctrines of the church would not save one form hell, but only faith would

Lutheran, Lutheranism
Lutheranism is a dominant branch of Western Christianity.
It stems from Martin Luther, a German Reformer, who endeavored to reform the Western church to a more biblical foundation.
Martin Luther’s efforts to keep the ideas and theology of the Roman Catholic Church alive resulted in the creation of the Protestant Reformation.
Luther wrote of his beliefs various times, as well, beginning with the 95 theses in 1517. His intentions and theories were spread everywhere, and soon the church and government were unable to control it.
The Edict of Worms in 1521 excommunicated Luther and his followers, developing a strict separation between the Lutherans and the Roman Catholics.
Lutherans mainly advocated Justification; they believed it was achieved by grace, as a result of faith, which was a result of Christ alone.

Johann Tetzel
1465-1519, Germany
he was a Dominican preacher
preached the Gospel and fought against heresy
he was known for having sold “indulgences”, which is cancellation of worldly punishment for sins after they’ve been forgiven (in other words, it’s a way for the Church to make money off of their followers’ faith)
Archbishop of Mainz, Albrecht of Brandenburg, commissioned Tetzel to sell indulgences throughout the Archbishop’s land
the proceeds helped pay for St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome and partly payed for the Archbishop’s bills
this outraged Martin Luther because the Church was taking advantage of people in order to get more money, and is partly what he was trying to change with the reformation

Theocracy
-a government ruled by divine power or the official policy is in accordance with a particular religion or religious group -Zwingli attempted to bring about a theocracy with the Church at its head -during the reformation, people wanted to unite religion, politics, and morality which is probably why theocracy surfaced -Zwingli's theocracy differed from the Lutheran ideas being as it made no distinction between an ordinary citizen and an ordinary christian

Colloquy of Marburg
A meeting in Germany, attempting to resolve the dispute between Martin Luther and Ulrich Zwingli regarding the Eucharist.
It took place in 1529
The leading Protestant reformers, Evangelical princes, and magistrates all met at the request of Philipp I of Hessen, who wished to unite the Germans and the Swiss in a political alliance.
Philipp hoped that by resolving the conflicting views of the two doctrines, he could develop a unified Protestant theology.
Ultimately, the Lutherans and Zwinglians had different views about the Eucharist, so the German and Swiss movements continued separately.
Daniella Cohen
15
John Calvin
Who: He was theologian and pastor that helped develop Calvinism.
He studied religion at the University of Paris and law in Orleans and Bourges.
He wrote all of his ideas into a book called Institutes of the Christian Religion.
Where: He spent his life in Geneva, Switzerland, but he was born in France.
When: He lived from 1509 to 1564.
Why it is important: By coming up with Calvinism, John Calvin was causing even more religious diversity within Europe.
Also, Calvin already believed that G-d decided who is saved and who is not saved, so there is no prospect of salvation.
He also brought back the idea of a democratic system and gave that idea instead of using a church hierarchy like the Catholic church.
Michali Mazor
16
Predestination
Predestination-
Who/ When: John Calvin created this idea during the time of the reformation
What: the idea that even before the world was created, G-d had decided if each man or woman will be going to heaven or hell
Why: Martin Luther’s doctrine made Calvin realize that no Christian can be certain of salvation
Importance: this caused religious authority to stress discipline among the people, knowing that only a small group were actually chosen for heaven

Protestant Reformation
Around 1517 Luther's 95 theses sparked the beginning of the reforomation that would take place thoughou Europe durig the 16th century
1515, Huldrych Zwilingli started the reformation in France and Germany, independetn form Luther; they had similar ideas about what was wrong with the church, but disagreed with how to fix it
John Calvin also doubted the validation of the church and while sturggiling with this, messages aginst the church were posted on a church, in French town where he lived, many people were killed, and he left France for Geneva, Switzerland; there the town took a great stand aginst the church; Geneva was also e faced with opposing ideas from other reformers
one way they tried to fix the fighting amoungst the reformers was: they gathered at Colloquy of Marburgin 1529 to come to terms with one another and they generlly succeed; yet Luther could not agree with Zwilingli about the purpose and role of Eucharist and this caused new sects to develop slowly- Lutheranism and Calvinism
The refromation greatly shaped Christianity, adding many sects to the religion; during this rebelious time against the church many refomers disliked the current way the church was run, but diagreed how it should be fixed/ reformed, thus ; Christianity and the Church in europe would never be the same

Peasants War of 1525
-The German Peasants' war took place from 1524 to 1526 in modern day Germany, Austria, and affected some of Switzerland
- it was a revolt over economic and religious matters such as
- departing from serfdom
- protecting the gains acquired from the lack of workers during the 14th century
- However Luther did not support the uprising, his doctrine "Priesthood of all Believers" came off as supporting stricter social equality that Luther himself believed. The German peasants took this and revolted to create greater social equality
- hundreds of thousands of peasants, town-dwellers, and nobles participated
- the peak of the revolt took place in 1525
- but their army was lacking with no money or military experience. This lacking ultimately lead to their defeat to the Holy Roman Empire's intervention

Anabaptists
-began in the sixteenth century with the laypeople of Zurich and eventually made its way to the northwestern city of Münster -believed that infants did not have the conscious ability to accept Christ during their baptism -so they decided to be rebaptized as adults so that they could knowingly accept their faith -believed faith's fundamental principles were reason and free will -pacifists who thought themselves to be saints in a world of sinners -eventually persecuted and drowned on Zwingli's command because he felt that their presence threatened his theocratic authority -their becoming martyrs introduced the institution of persecution into the Christian religion (in the attempt to unite everyone into one faith they just further separated themselves because they were violent)

dani ditchek

Parish
Parish
-a plot of land under a parish priest
- its like the papal states except a Parish is ruled by a ruler of a minor church. also the parish priest can be assisted in being a pastor. this person is called a curate.
- this piece of land is different than previous European Christian land. Previously, the pope was the ruler and decided canons for all of europe that he owned. Parish land gives the ability to the parish priests to decide the canons for their own land.

Infidels
Infidel is an ecclesiastical term used in the 1500’s that literally means “one without faith”. It is a person who is not a part of any particular religion, and has no religious beliefs, similar to an atheist.
This term is usually used in Christianity or Islam.
Christians used this word to describe enemies of Christianity, or people that were not baptized.
Some people believe that these perceptions of infidelity were the causes of the Crusades and numerous holy wars.
Judaism, Islam, and Christianity all reject infidels because each religion is strictly monotheistic and are anti- pagan rights.

Anne Boleyn
She was queen of England from 1533-1536, second wife of Henry VIII of England.
She was a strong supporter of the Reformation.
Because Henry’s first wife Catherine only bore a daughter and because he was in love with Anne, he asked Pope Clement VII to declare his marriage to Catherine invalid.
The pope refused Henry’s request which led to a struggle for power between the religious and secular leadership. Thus, papal power began to deteriorate in England.
Anne gave birth to the future Queen Elizabeth I of England. However, Henry was not pleased that Anne could not bear a boy to take over the throne. He had her investigated for high treason.
Anne was beheaded for charges against her including adultery.
She is known for being one of the most important queens of England because her marriage to Henry presented the opportunity for Henry to declare independence from the Catholic Church in Rome.

Anglican Church
*
Anglican Church (The Church of England) separated from the Roman Catholic Church in 1538 during king Henry VIII’s reign.
King Henry wanted to marry Anne Boleyn because he liked her and wanted to produce a male heir to his throne, but Pope Clement VII would not declare his marriage to Catherine of Aragon invalid
As a result, King Henry chose two Protestants (Thomas Cromwell and Thomas Cranmer) as his new loyal servants who encouraged him to pass a number of acts between 1529 and 1536, which weakened the ties between the English church and Rome.
England would then reunite with the Roman Catholic Church in 1539 under Queen Mary I and then separate again in 1570 (When Queen Elizabeth I would get excommunicated).

Schmalkaldic League
Located in the Holy Roman Empire.
Around the 16th century.
Lutheran princes rose up together in order to defend themselves against the Holy Roman Empire.
It was initially created for religious purposes after the Protestant Reformation, but soon its leaders intended for the League to politically take over the Holy Roman Empire.
It contained a military to defend its political and religious beliefs.
Rachel Petrover
52
Peace of Augsburg
What: It was a treaty made between the Schmalkaldic League and Charles V.
It ended the struggle between the two religious groups, and allowed Europe to be divided into the Roman Catholics and the Lutherans.
They had a policy of cuius regio, eius religio – that a person was allowed to move to the region where his faith was practiced.
Where: In Augsburg, Germany
When: It was made on September 25, 1555
Why it is important: The German princes were now allowed to choose which religion they could follow, even though it was limited to the Lutheran Church and the Roman Catholic Church.
This took away power from the Catholic Church, and gave power to the state. EXCELLENT!!
At this point, the princes were not only controlling the secular, but the religious as well.

Bartolome de Las Casas
Bartolomé de Las Casas was tremendously opposed to the way that Europeans treated the Native Americans.
He was able to persuade the monarchy of Spain to help protect the Native American’s from the Europeans.
For instance, he received permission from Spain to pass the New Laws of 1542, which consisted of many laws that prohibited the European settlers from mistreating the Native Americans.
Unfortunately, Spain eventually feared that the New Laws would start a rebellion. Therefore, they repealed many of the laws.
Although Las Casas was against brutality against the Native Americans, he ironically supports the enslavement of Africans.
Significance: Bartolome De Las Casas was not very successful in putting an end to the exploitation of Native Americans. However, perhaps he put an end to some of the Native persecution.
